Ruckus MediaFlex Hotspot
Page 2 Ruckus Wireless Confidential
Users now expect reliable Wi-Fi wherever
Wide range of users (free, fee-based, enterprise)
Multitude of client devices
New multimedia applications such as Vo-Fi, IP-based video, enterprise extension
Better coverage, higher densities
Need to make money on Wi-Fi
Triple Play Extending Beyond the Home

Hotspots Under Pressure to Evolve
The high end (centralized enterprise) Expensive Feature overkill Requires IT expertise Difficult to manage Inadequate coverage No multimedia support
The low end (consumer-grade) Inadequate coverage No multimedia support No advanced features for
hotspots Individually managed
But No Purpose-Built Solution Exists
What’sNeeded?

Advanced Troubleshooting Remote spectrum monitoring
Plots hotspot RF environment over time
Detect non-Wi-Fi devices and unauthorized APs Devices per channel/frequency
Detects co-channel interference due to neighbor AP overlap
Measures network load to assess over/under utilization of channels
Continuous channel selection Picks best channel based on utilization and
performance

Page 15 Ruckus Wireless Confidential
Case Study: ThaiFi
Requirements Get good Wi-Fi coverage
throughout 35-story hotel
Ensure no guest disturbance (i.e. remote management a must)
Minimize number of access points
Mitigate interference
Support for emerging applications such as IP video
Multiple SSIDs for different networks (eg. Internal operations, public access, etc.)
Cost-effective (sub $200)
Solution MediaFlex HS
Doubled range of Wi-Fi Reduced the number of
APs by more than 1/2 Better signal penetration Automatic interference
avoidance
Multiple SSIDs for different networks (eg. Internal operations, public access, etc.)
Ideal price/feature ratio
